Description

There are problems with the display in IE, the "main" column pushes all the other columns far right off the screen. I can't determine if this is a misaligned div, coding, or architecture problem.

Hi,

Can you provide me more information about your setup?

Or even better, give me your website's url (if it's a public site)?

Which version of IE are you using to reproduce this problem?

I noticed this happens when I test in IE6.

Hi,

Does this issue still persist? Can you please describe your issue in more detail, preferably with specific symptoms?

hi i'm still here, somehow i fixed it along the way, i actually restarted with a fresh install TWICE and went from there to understand how it works. There isn't exactly a fix I can recommend other than only people well versed in the eccentricities of CSS can effectively modify the column setup here. Basically you need to set negative margins so that IE will not push the columns around.

Btw my full mod is pretty much done at www.TwinCityScene.com
I have not tested in IE in month or so so if it looks whacked let me know

ONE COMMENT: It would be preferable to have more customized node views such as full node view versus teaser node views, I don't know if Drupal allows this but I've been lazy and simply display: none things or specifying .front and .page-taxonomy classes to separate changes to node.tpl.php

Marking this as fixed since it seems not to be a problem anymore.

Yes, Drupal only shows a node either in teaser or fullnode view. There isn't a middle ground. At least, not without a lot of hurdle jumping with custom code.

Thank you, now head over to the Picture question :D

Uh, which "Picture" question?

Basically I wanted the author picture to show up in full nodes but they would not

<?php if ($picture) print $picture; ?>

I will solve this instead with a Views block that shows up depending on what the node author is
